From Lab to Law
EIP is proud to announce our new Trainee Solicitor Pathway for STEM graduates who are interested in qualifying as a solicitor specializing in patent law. Science and technology are at the heart of what we do - if you would like a professional services career with a science and technology focus, read on!
This is a fantastic opportunity to complete the journey from STEM graduate/postgraduate to a qualified solicitor. Our three-year scheme supports STEM specialists as they complete their fully funded Graduate Diploma in Law over the first year and then join our team for a two-year period of training whilst fully employed and working on real cases with the team.
In year one, you will complete the Post-Graduate Diploma in Law; a full-time university course, and you will complete this at our preferred provider. EIP will fund your course fees and offer assistance with living costs. You will also be encouraged to maintain contact with the team and will be invited to social events and team off-sites.
The trainee solicitor will then join our leading litigation department and will gain direct experience working closely with the solicitors and partners on complex patent cases.
Who We Are Looking For
We would be interested to hear from high-achieving graduates or post-graduates in a STEM subject. It is not essential to have completed any legal training prior to accepting this position.
Why EIP?
We specialize in high-value and complex patent matters, with offices across Europe and the US. Our multidisciplinary team includes patent attorneys, litigators, and commercial IP lawyers working in three of the world's key patent markets - the UK, Europe, and the USA.
Our multi award-winning patent litigation practice is highly successful and highly ranked in the legal directories. Our cross-border team of patent litigators sits in Germany and the UK, thus allowing us to service clients in two of the key European patent litigation jurisdictions. Our innovative combination of experienced specialist patent litigators and the wide variety of technical specialties of our patent attorneys has led to a long line of client successes in the courtroom.
Ready to Apply?
If you're excited to make an impact in the world of patent litigation, we'd love to hear from you.
